Chapter 54, Black! It's so dark! Four reasons why Lincoln must die
Lincoln guessed at once why Cleveland said that.
But when this truth came out, it made him feel that the world was dark and cruel.
[Cleveland: It seems that President Lincoln, you may have guessed something, so you should calm down. Let me start by talking about these reasons, and you can see if they are correct. 】
Seeing Lincoln's reaction to Lincoln's answer in the group, Cleveland probably knew that Lincoln's mentality was a little unbalanced.
Therefore, he did not wait for Lincoln's reaction and directly solved everyone's doubts.
Cleveland: Why do I say that? Here's just my opinion. First, this civil war is a civil war of our own, as President Lincoln said at the inauguration of the Gettysburg Memorial Cemetery...... Those who are fighting, alive, and dead on this land are citizens of America. 】
[From the beginning to the end of this civil war, 750,000 soldiers were killed, 400,000 soldiers were disabled, and an incalculable number of civilians were killed, and we later estimated that about 8 million people were killed or maimed as a result of the war. 】
[The civil war has been won, and we are once again people of one country. 】
Who is responsible for the dead? How can the living people, who have gathered so much hatred and resentment, how to resolve it? 】
As soon as this reason came out, the hearts of everyone in the group were undoubtedly punched hard, especially several people in the United States.
Yes, these are strictly speaking, their own people, who were chosen.
Even Zhu Houzhao thought of Sheng Yong and Tie Xuan in the Battle of Jingjing!
Tie Xuan was executed by Taizong Lingchi, and Sheng Yong also chose to commit suicide.
Excluding the civil war factor, they are many good generals.
Then there is another heavyweight, Xu Da's son Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, who was also liquidated afterwards because he stood on Zhu Yunwen's side and did not support Zhu Di, and finally died in Yongle for five years, and died in the prime of his forties.
The cause of death is a mystery.
Is there anything wrong with them?
From the perspective of the entire Daming country, there is nothing wrong.
But the position is wrong, and in the end he becomes the king and loses.
And in addition to so many of them in high power, what about the people who suffered from the military disaster in the midst of the martyrdom.
Probably about eight million were affected.
What's wrong with them?
Starting from this point, Zhu Houzhao barely understood why Lincoln died, if he had a little conscience, he really wanted to serve the country and the people, and there was indeed only one way left for him.
[Meitaizu Washington: This civil war is even more tragic than we imagined. So many people...... So much hatred ......]
With this alone, Washington felt speechless.
[Cleveland: The second reason is...... Southern Privileged Class! They still have the strength to fight, and this war has caused considerable damage to their property, and behind them, they have many seats, political parties. The Republican Party wants to get them to really admit defeat, or to be convinced, to continue to lead the United States, a complete American ...... There must also be sufficient sincerity. 】
Cleveland went on to give a second reason, which came out...... Jackson, Washington, and Jefferson all stopped talking.
Because, the first reason above is high-sounding, and this reason is the truth!
Black! Filthy!
It's so dark.
That's politics!
[Cleveland: The third reason is...... Within their Republican Party, will they allow a president whose prestige is enough to threaten their existence? Not to mention...... President Lincoln, who liquidated the Southern states after the war, did not show enough opinion, was neither a radical liquidator nor a conservative liquidator, wanted to be an intermediary? 】
There was a lot of sarcasm in Cleveland's words.
[Cleveland: As for the last reason, it's ridiculous, President Lincoln...... His background is too humble, and there are no enough forces or big people behind him to protect him, and killing him can't stir up any waves. Probably just need to endure the abuse of some ignorant people......]
The chat group has become a one-man show in Cleveland.
[Mercerzu Lincoln: Don't say it! Cleveland! Stop it! I beg you to stop talking! 】
Lincoln was finally torn off all pretenses, completely knocked out by the cold and dark reality.
His so-called ideals and dreams were completely shattered under the iron fist of this cruel reality.
This truth is like a quick knife, stabbing him with a knife, and all the will to safeguard national interests has also been blatantly disintegrated at this moment.
[S. S. Cleveland: I'm sorry...... President Lincoln, this is just my personal speculation, and the world doesn't have to be this bad. What's bad may be that the actor himself is too evil, or maybe it's really just his personal behavior. 】
[Mercerzu Lincoln: Don't say it, don't say it.] Please. 】
After Lincoln said this, Zhu Houzhao found that his avatar had dimmed.
[Supreme group leader: Lincoln is offline. 】
He prompted, and at this time, he didn't know why, and his mood was heavy.
Not because of Lincoln, but because he suddenly thought of the death of Tianshun Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, and the death of his grandfather Xianzong Zhu Jianshen, it seems that ......
There are some similarities to Lincoln's reasons for his death.
In the eighth year of Tianshun, the thirty-eight-year-old Zhu Qizhen died.
Bei Hunt didn't die for a year, Nangong didn't die for seven years, but he died after eight years as emperor.
One thing to say, when Tianshun was in tune, his various methods of seizing power were very old-fashioned, and he didn't know how many times more powerful than when he was young.
However, he died suddenly.
And also......
His grandfather, Emperor Chenghua Zhu Jianshen, held power tightly in his hands by various means, and made civil officials want to die or live.
Then, in the twenty-third year of Chenghua, Wan Zhen'er died for exactly half a year, and she also died.
Then he was replaced, raised by the harem, his cowardly father became the emperor, responded to the ministers, and lived peacefully for eighteen years, and then actually died a little bizarrely.
Recent...... Zhu Houzhao realized that the deaths of his father and his grandfather did not seem to be so simple.
He died at the hands of the same imperial physician, Liu Wentai.
He was ready to investigate this Liu Wentai fiercely, and then he was ready to take advantage of this to set off a big case and take power.
That's why we should be psychologically comforted in front of the tablets of our ancestors and ancestors.
At this time...... As soon as Lincoln's set of reasons for his death came out, Zhu Houzhao didn't even feel a cold sweat.
He didn't seem to be in power, and he was in power.
I'm afraid I'll offend some groups, and I'm afraid I'll have a reason to die when the time comes.
Do you dare? Will it? Will there be such an interest group in Daming that is blacker than the United States?
Zhu Houzhao shuddered, how could there be anything new under the sun.
A president like Lincoln who took advantage of the might of war dared to kill, and what else did they dare not kill.
Then, he instantly thought of a typical example, Song Zhezong was also a young emperor, and he wanted to change the law......
After being pro-government, he began to depose some old parties, and finally ...... At a young age, he was angry to death at the age of 25.
Is it really? Is it as simple as it is recorded in the history books?
Just like Lincoln's death, it was just an ordinary person who was ordered to kill him......
Can he believe it?
[Jackson: Those people are so dirty!] It really seems like a trick on their part! The cost of this civil war is too great, they are using people and throwing them away like garbage! 】
[Mitajo Washington: I can't think about it...... It seems to be almost, just a little, and it became Lincoln. 】
Washington felt even more afraid, and he had no doubt that if he was not smart, he would also be assassinated.
[Jefferson: Cleveland, you think of us too dirty, can we Republicans use these methods? 】
Jefferson, who was born in the elite class, was a little uncomfortable, and always felt that Cleveland was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
[Julizo Louis XVI: So, I said that I am not fit to be a king, how easy it is to repair locks and make locks. I really just want to be an ordinary locksmith......]
Louis XVI was afraid, and he had seen a lot of this thing, so he was not smart, so he chose to bury himself in repairing locks, hating to be born in the emperor's family.
[Supreme Group Master: Okay, now that Lincoln is offline.] He asked for help, and he will count it later. Are there any group members who need help? 】
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath, put aside his cranky thoughts, and continued to host the chat.
He wants to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who makes the Ming Dynasty truly great, and the political struggle is the inevitable path to take.
Louis XVI's petty ambition made him despise him, and he was not destined to be the same kind of emperor.
Lincoln's incident reminded him that he should pay more attention to this kind of thing in the future.
